Journals come in a variety of “flavors” with regard to open access. As
a result, those hybrid publications present their own challenges with
regard to collection development and collection management. For most
librarians, that challenge is closely related with one in an adjacent
space -- compliance with funder mandates. There is an obligation to
ensure that funded research materials are made available to the public
present; that, in turn, presents its own set of issues. If you and
your colleagues are wrestling with either or both of these issues, set
aside time next month to participate in Managing an Open Access World,
a two-part webinar from NISO!

You can register for one session as a stand-alone or for both at a
package rate. Unavailable at the specified dates and times? Don’t
forget that access to an archived recording of the event is included
in the registration fee.

NISO Two Part Webinar: Managing an Open Access World, September 7 & 14

1:00pm – 2:30pm (Eastern)

As Open Access has proven itself a viable business model in the
marketplace of journals, institutions are beginning to grapple with
the implications and ramifications of its success. This includes the
practicalities of how to manage acquisitions in a hybrid open access
environment, dealing with discovery implications of open access, and
institutional compliance with funder mandates. This two-part series
will explore the practical issues of a world in which open access
becomes the norm for some segment of scholarly communications.

Part 1: Open Access and Acquisitions, 1:00-2:30pm, Wednesday, September 7

http://www.niso.org/news/events/2016/webinars/sep7_webinar/

The first part of this miniseries will focus on the implications of
open access on content acquisition. What are the impacts of hybrid
open access on publisher pricing at a title or collection level?  Is
there a tipping point where open access availability of a portion of a
title’s content will change the calculus about acquiring a title for
one’s collection?  How do we keep track of the increasing number of
open access titles and the increasing amount of hybrid open access
content at a journal level? Presenters will cover these questions as
well as provide information on research to explore these issues.

Confirmed Speakers: Jill Emery, Collection Development Librarian,
Portland State University; Allyson Rodriguez, Strategic Collections
Librarian, University of North Texas; Chris Bulock, Collection
Coordinator for Electronic Resource Management, California State
University – Northridge.

Part 2: Compliance With Funder Mandates, 1:00-2:30pm, Wednesday, September 14

http://www.niso.org/news/events/2016/webinars/sep14_webinar/

The second part of this miniseries will examine how institutions
address compliance requirements of funder mandates. As more and more
funding bodies adopt mandates for open distribution of content, at
many universities the tracking of this compliance is falling on the
library directly or in support of research offices.  Are there ways to
automate compliance tracking and strategies for improving compliance?
This session will explore progress being made by initiatives to gather
and disseminate open access compliance, as well as the perspective of
funders who are requiring this information.

Confirmed Speakers: Pamela Shaw, Biosciences & Bioinformatics
Librarian, Galter Library, Northwestern University; Jeff Broadbent,
Associate Vice President for Research and Associate Dean for Graduate
Studies, Office of Research and Graduate Studies, Utah State
University, and Betty Rozum, Data Services Coordinator and
Undergraduate Research Librarian, Utah State University; Sarah Young,
Health Science and Policy Librarian, Cornell University
